war on talent & skills mismatch -job market trends around the globe
Randstad WorkmonitorGlobal Press Report Q2 2011
summary job market trends (1)
employees start to feel impact of demographic shift other studies have identified a demographic shift in the US and Europe: increasing demand along with decreasing supply, due to an ageing and/or shrinking labor force. • the predicted demographic shift and its impact on the careers of
employees is starting to become apparent, but not in all countries. In Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, Luxembourg, New Zealand and Slovakia, less than one third of the employees feel that the larger group of employees retiring will directly impact their career opportunities.
earning 5% more is not a stimulus to work beyond official retirement age• in Australia, Denmark, India, Japan, Singapore, Slovakia and Turkey, the
incentive of earning 5% more doesn’t work as a stimulus for employees to work two years beyond their official retirement age. They would also be happy to work two more years without an additional financial benefit.
Randstad Workmonitor Q2, June 20112
summary job market trends (2)
war on talent visible for employeesalongside the demographic shifts, a war on talent is said to have emerged and intensified. The war on talent refers to an increasingly competitive landscape for recruiting and retaining talented employees.
• the war on talent is visible. In most countries, around one third of the employees state that the organization for which they work does not succeed in hiring well-qualified staff to fill its vacancies.
• retaining talented and well-qualified employees seems to be an issue. In most countries, half or more of the employees have noticed that the majority of their colleagues leaving the company were performing very well. Exceptions are Greece, Japan and the Netherlands. Only a third in these countries state that they relatively often lose well-performing colleagues.
Randstad Workmonitor Q2, June 20113
summary job market trends (3)
employees acknowledge mismatch in skillsprevious research concluded that Europe misses out on employment opportunities because of skill-mismatch problems. Many employers can’ t find the right skills to fill job vacancies.
• several employees admit that the requirements of their current job are beyond their abilities. On average a quarter of the employees feels this way. In France, the percentage of employees is especially high: 49%.
• on the other hand, there are employees who would prefer a position with more responsibility, even without an increase in salary. Worldwide, around one third would prefer more responsibility.
• it looks as if organizations who fail to find the right skills to fill job vacancies expect more from their current employees. In most countries, half or more of the employees feel that their career now demands more education and training than ever before. Most organizations take care of providing sufficient education and training for their employees.
Randstad Workmonitor Q2, June 20114
mobility, satisfaction & personal motivation (1)
on average, level of confidence has stabilized after a period of growth• Chinese, Indian and Australian employees are most confident
about finding another job. In Spain there has been a large boost in confidence.
• in Switzerland the fear of losing a job has increased significantly in the past 3 months. In Germany, not many employees are very fearful of losing their job; even less fearful than 3 months ago.
Mobility Index remains at 106• overall no changes have occurred in mobility and job searching in
the past 3 months. In comparison to Q1 2010 the Mobility Index has increased from 100 to 106, which means more employees worldwide expect to be employed elsewhere in the upcoming 6 months than they did a year ago.
Randstad Workmonitor Q2, June 20115
mobility, satisfaction & personal motivation (2)
unsteady job market in Switzerland• Swiss employees seem restless. They are more fearful of losing
their job and the mobility index of Switzerland has greatly increased (+12!) in the last quarter. More and more Swiss expect to be working somewhere else in the upcoming six months.
Mobility Index India remains the highest • besides Switzerland, the Mobility Index of Spain, Mexico and
Luxembourg have increased. For Poland, Norway, Slovakia, Denmark and Chile, the Mobility Index has declined.
on average no changes in intensity job search• Swedish employees are most actively looking for a new job (30%
compared to 11% worldwide).
Randstad Workmonitor Q2, June 20116
mobility, satisfaction & personal motivation (3)
Danish and Mexican employees most satisfied (83%)• the increase in satisfied Danish employees with their current
employer makes Danish employees the most satisfied in Europe.• compared to 3 months ago, the satisfaction of Chinese employees
has grown. Canadian and Indian employees are less satisfied thanbefore.
Italians are the most ambitious employees in Europe (82%)• in the Scandinavian countries (Denmark, Norway and Sweden),
employees are the least focused on getting a promotion. InPoland, fewer employees are focused on getting a promotion thanpreviously.

background Randstad Workmonitor (1)
• after successfully introducing the Workmonitor in the Netherlands in 2003 and more recently in Germany, the survey now covers 29 countries around the world. The study encompasses Europe, Asia Pacific and the Americas. The Randstad Workmonitor is published four times a year, making both local and global trends in mobility visible over time.
• the Mobility Index, which tracks employee confidence and captures the likelihood of an employee changing jobs within the next six months, provides a comprehensive understanding of sentiments and trends in the job market. In addition to mobility, employee satisfaction and personal motivation as well as a rotating set of themed questions are part of the survey.
